The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) expresses its deep concern for, and solidarity with, the Government and people of Jamaica, and other CARICOM Member States and Associate Member States, including Haiti, The Bahamas, the Cayman Islands, and the Turks and Caicos Islands, and other countries in the Region, which are in the path of the record-breaking system, Hurricane Melissa.
We commend the efforts of national disaster management agencies and emergency responders who have been working to ensure everyone’s safety and well-being.
We urge everyone to heed the official advice and information shared to secure lives against the wrath of this devastating system.
CARICOM reaffirms its commitment to a collective effort to support recovery and reconstruction efforts in the aftermath of the hurricane, including through the coordinated efforts of the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency (CDEMA).
Any storm named after Melissa or Roosevelt should be very dangerous and demonic and therefore a big alas for any country it makes land fall in
